Thursday, November 24, 2016(4 comments)Trump Is Obama With Backbone
When Obama passes the gauntlet to Trump, the stage will have been set to take things even further. With only weeks left in office he suggests that "fake news" should be stopped. What do you think? Do you think the alt-right (Fascists) will like Obama's idea? Do you think they will like to stop news stories they don't like? Do you think they will continue Obama's policy of jailing journalists and arresting and torturing whistle

Friday, October 21, 2016(1 comments)BLAH! Theater For The Politically Challenged
It is difficult to satirize this election... what comes to mind is how the questions NOT being asked are much more important than the ones that are being asked.

Friday, March 18, 2016(5 comments)Bernie and Goliath
Bernie has done amazingly well, considering the extent of the opposition to him. He is completely alone. He might do better by calling out Obama the hypocrite, as he does Hillary, but he can't. It would be political suicide.

Tuesday, February 2, 2016(11 comments)Heads Hillary Wins, Tails Bernie Loses
Coin tosses?
Isn't something serious at stake here? For some people, raising the minimum wage, or expanding Social Security, or Medicare-For-All, all of which Hillary opposes, are matters of life and death. Some people are offended by the very idea of their life being decided by a coin toss.

Friday, January 29, 2016(7 comments)Euphemistically Being Hillary
Nonhuman people (euphemisms for corporations) that front for a tiny number of successful (euphemism for the one percent) human people, who want to own everything (euphemistically called 'privatization'), have made Hillary Clinton fabulously rich. They have put over $125 million since 2001 into her own, personal bank account.

Friday, January 15, 2016(88 comments)Noam Chomsky Rains On Bernie's Parade
At this time when so many people don't vote because they feel the system is corrupt and rigged against them, it is imprudent of you to rain on Sander's parade.

Wednesday, December 9, 2015(7 comments)How About Israel?
It boggles the imagination that America's 'most important ally' in the region has not put boots on the ground against ISIS. In a new ranking released by Business Insider, Israel has the most powerful military in the Middle East. It also ranked 1st in the region in military strength in the world by Global Firepower, which did not even include Israel's nuclear capability at the time of the ranking.

Sunday, November 15, 2015(2 comments)Ignore Bernie Sanders
Major impact media, even liberal ones, such as The New York Times continue to hope Bernie will go away if they just ignore him. Ain't gonna happen.

Friday, November 13, 2015(7 comments)Should Churches Pay Taxes?
According to former White House senior policy analyst, Jeff Schweitzer, American churches own $300-$500 billion in untaxed property. Yet churches receive all the benefits of army, police and fire protection, as well as city and state services like purified water, garbage collection, and road repairs, all paid for by tax-paying citizens, whether they are affiliated with a church or not.

Sunday, November 8, 2015(40 comments)Should We Vote For Hillary?
Would voting for Jill Stein be advisable, if Bernie loses and does not run as an independent, which is what he has pledged?

Tuesday, October 20, 2015(16 comments)A Clinton/Trump Ticket
The advantages of the millionaire/billionaire merger would be enormous.

Wednesday, October 14, 2015(10 comments)The Democratic Debate Wasn't
The Democratic debate wasn't.
In real debates the participants ask each other questions, who follow up by answering, then asking more questions. In last night's 'debate' the highly filtered, expected 'questions' came mostly from Anderson Cooper, the moderator. The participants failed to question each other.

Thursday, October 1, 2015(2 comments)The Demise of the Mad Hatter
We have a minimum of 662 military installations (Ron Paul put the number at over 900) in 38 foreign countries. Our "friends" all over the world do not pay a plug nickel for our services -- we provide the protection completely free-of-charge. These military installations cost us in excess of 200 billion dollars a year.
Why are we so terribly generous?

Friday, August 7, 2015(6 comments)Lewis Black: "Both Parties Are Bowls Of Sh*T"
Americans wonder if we have any alternative to the two party system. "We are still the greatest country in the world," the "pundits" say. Anyway how do you fight the Supreme Court? If the Supreme Court says corporations are people and that money is speech, that's what it is. They could declare that a jockstrap is a hat, and their proclamation would make it true. And nothing short of hanging them can change anything.

Friday, June 19, 2015(27 comments)Hillary Is Obama With Lipstick
The Hillary Clinton candidacy represents a lose-lose situation for us.
If she becomes president, she will be Obama with lipstick. (Isn't it time for us to face up to the fact that Obama has more in common with Reagan than with Roosevelt?). She will rule from the same ivory tower from which Obama peers down at us, and continue to cavort with billionaires and kings.

Tuesday, November 11, 2014(22 comments)There Was No Election
There was no election.
Despite the cacophony of the major-media propagandists, liberals and progressives did not take a walloping; and there was no mandate for the lunatic fringe that runs the Republican Party.

Wednesday, May 28, 2014(5 comments)Monsanto Versus Democracy In Vermont
Monsanto is using its considerable power in Washington to hide what they are up to. At stake is not only your health, but the supply of all the world's food.

What happens when the engine light goes on but there is nothing wrong except that the engine light is on?

Wednesday, September 4, 2013(1 comments)OBAMA, THE WOLF WHO CRIED BOY (with apologies to Canis lupis)
OBAMA THE WOLF: He's proved over and over again that he's a wolf.
If at this point you don't agree, you are negligently naïve. For example: Detainees in Guantanamo, who have been officially cleared for release, will die there.

Friday, June 21, 2013(24 comments)Dear Obamaheads
Obama would be happier if he were a Republican. So would most Democrats.

Thursday, May 2, 2013(6 comments)Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, Superman, and the American Way
We Americans argue a lot about second amendment rights. How many of us pay any attention to Sixth Amendment rights? The Sixth Amendment is far more important to protecting our liberty, yet most Americans do not even know it exists.

Thursday, February 10, 2011(1 comments)Saving Boy W. George's" Errr Face
Reuters February 6, 2011: the Swiss will arrest the erstwhile President of the United States, better known to Washington insiders as Boy W. George, for violating the terms of the Convention on Torture, which was signed in 1987 by 147 countries including the United States and Switzerland, if he sets foot in Switzerland as planned.

Monday, December 20, 2010(3 comments)BILLIONAIRES SHOULD PAY NO TAXES AT ALL!
When Obama said America was being "held hostage" by the Republicans, that he had no choice but to compromise, he lied.
He could have been the transformational leader that we thought we elected.
he wasn't.
